Enhanced web and audio conferencing solution allows businesses to conduct more interactive and productive online meetings

Woburn, MA (September 28, 2004) - Intranets.com (http://www.intranets.com), the world's leading provider of on-demand collaboration services, today unveiled several new features to its web and audio conferencing solution including video conferencing, record-and-playback and SSL encryption. The company will also make available a 14-day free trial of the service for customers wishing to try the cutting-edge solution. With these new enhancements, Intranets.com now provides all of the functionality of similar web conferencing offerings from WebEx and Microsoft LiveMeeting, but at a fraction of the price.

The updated features are the result of a successful partnership with Netspoke, a real-time web and audio conferencing provider, and are part of a broader initiative by Intranets.com to offer its customers frequent, substantive product enhancements. The company serves more than 230,000 users across 8,000 companies, focusing on small-to-midsize organizations as well as departments and teams within larger organizations.

"Small and midsized businesses' adoption of on-demand collaboration services is flourishing as more businesses realize the value these services can bring to their organizations at a very reasonable cost," said Laurie McCabe, Vice President for SMB Insights and Business Solutions at AMI-Partners. "With its integrated web and audio conferencing solution, Intranets.com added a key collaborative application to its suite. The new enhancements, combined with extremely competitive pricing, continue to make Intranets.com a very attractive solution for SMBs."

The Intranets.com Web & Audio Conferencing solution now includes:

• Integrated Video Conferencing - Share live, streaming video during any conference. With the click of a button, customers can share streaming video images straight from a webcam to create a more personalized, compelling meeting.
• Conference Recording and Playback - Capture any meeting (both the on-screen and phone portion) for later viewing. Save the entire meeting for people who can't attend, or keep it as an archive.
• Optional SSL Encryption for Conferencing - Protect high security meetings by adding SSL encryption to any conference. Encryption keeps conference data safe during the transmission over the Internet.

With Intranets.com's Web & Audio Conferencing solution, organizations can easily share applications, files - even their computer's entire desktop - with meeting participants in real-time. In addition to the new enhancements, this complete solution gives users a set of powerful and intuitive meeting and presentation tools that include slide annotation, live chat, polling, and Q&A features.

"These additions to our web and audio conferencing solution are part of our ongoing effort to bring full-featured collaboration tools to our customers without the enterprise price tag," said Rick Faulk, president and CEO of Intranets.com. "Any Intranets.com user can immediately begin using the new features to conduct more effective online meetings that ultimately save time and drive business productivity."

Constant Contact, a leading e-mail marketing service, uses web and audio conferencing from Intranets.com daily to conduct webinars for its partners as well as sales demonstrations for both prospective partners and customers. "While travel may be an option every once in a while, it cannot be a daily occurrence," said Janet Muto, vice president of marketing at Constant Contact. "Intranets.com allows us to demonstrate the benefits of our service at every opportunity - easily and affordably. The product enhancements are extremely valuable for companies like ours who are continually looking for new ways to make our online presentations more personal and interactive."

Intranets.com's collaboration suite is designed to help employees work more effectively with co-workers online, regardless of physical location. The suite includes document management, web and audio conferencing, calendaring, database management, task management, and many other customizable applications. Most recently, the company added group scheduling functionality to its online calendar as well as a new Intranets toolbar that allows users to access their intranet applications by simply clicking a button from within their browser window.
